The Cat PM310 is an efficient, highly maneuverable milling machine with a cutting width of 1000 mm (39.4 in) that performs controlled full-depth removal of asphalt and concrete pavements in a single pass. Integrated Cat GRADE and the latest System K rotors deliver performance, productivity and cutting precision. A comfortable operator environment puts intuitive controls at your fingertips, while long service intervals and easy maintenance access simplifies service. While designed for a single operator, the PM310 includes added features for supporting ground personnel. Many options are available to enhance machine versatility when optimum maneuverability or high production capabilities are required.

The belt reverses for quick clean out, while magnetic vinyl covers provide quick access to inspect and clean the rollers
Durable Cutting System
The rotor drive system features a heavy-duty dry clutch, dual stage belt drive and automatic belt-tensioning to prevent slippage
Reinforced cutting chamber offers enhanced durability
Hardened full length side plate skis and anti-slab shoes reduce wear and maintenance
High Production System K Rotors
Cat System K rotors feature efficient material flow with an excellent cutting pattern for numerous applications
A tapered dual-retention design secures toolholders in place without a retaining pin, bolt or setscrew, speeding up replacement and eliminating the need for fasteners or torquing
Toolholders, base blocks and kicker paddles are built from high strength alloy steel that’s abrasion resistant for extended life
Optional diamond bits can extend replacement intervals up to 40 times longer than conventional carbide bits
Comfortable Work Environment
Operate in comfort with a standard suspension seat, adjustable right arm console and intuitive, ergonomic controls
A sliding operator station extends up to 215 mm (8.5 in) to provide improved visibility to the cutting edge
Work day or night with backlit keypads and illuminate the work area around the machine with wide-dispersion LED or halogen lighting options
Touchscreen displays provide access to gauge cluster, operating information, remote camera feeds, machine controls and diagnostics
Optional remote cameras enhance visibility to the cutting edges, conveyor, and rear of the machine
Cut closer to obstacles on either side using optional remote cameras with adjustable on-screen guidance lines
An optional hydraulically powered canopy with extendible wing and handrail-mounted windscreen protect the operator from sun, wind, and rain
Better direct exhaust up and away when milling close to buildings or ground personnel with the optional and stowable exhaust diverter
Maximize dust removal from the working areas with the optional dust abatement system
Integrated Cat Technology
Achieve accurate, repeatable and automatic cutting precision with the integrated Cat Grade and Slope system
The optional grade control display can be positioned in the operator station or on the back of the machine to enable interaction with the grade system from the ground level
Obtain full control of grade and slope from any machine display
Easily adjust grade control values and sensors through the highly intuitive touchscreen interface
Adjust the speed at which the rotor drops into the cut for optimal machine control
Set and automate transitions into/out of cuts and save settings for future jobs
Clear obstacles in the cutting path with ease using the obstacle jump feature
Enhance for full 3D milling operation (additional hardware required)
Simplified Service, Low Maintenance Costs
Maintenance is easier with large service doors for access to critical components
Maintenance-free track components and easy to replace track pads lower service costs
Standard ground-level controls and an optional hydraulically operated rotor turning device simplify bit removal and replacement

Sustainability
The Cat C9.3B engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V and Korea Stage V emission standards
Cat U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Korea Stage V Final diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels* up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.
Engine Idle Speed Management helps maximize fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by elevating engine speed to an intermediate idle to complete specific tasks and returning to low idle when finished.
Automatic Load Control helps you save fuel and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by automatically matching milling speed to engine load for maximum production at peak efficiency.
Standby/Resume pauses major machine functions and lowers engine speed to conserve fuel and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions during truck exchanges.
Traction Control maintains consistent traction to increase machine efficiency, helps reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
Cat Scheduled Oil Sampling (S•O•SSM) Services helps reveal excessive wear, contaminated fluids or other “unseen” issues that can shorten component life. In many cases, you can extend oil and coolant change intervals by using fluid monitoring. Consult your Cat dealer or the machine’s operation and maintenance manual for more information.
Cat Grade with Grade and Slope for cold planers allows for accurate material planning to help reduce overages during the paving process and increase final project quality for a longer lasting road surface.
Don’t waste fuel idling. Cat VisionLink online fleet monitoring helps you manage idle time and reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
VisionLink displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.
* Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels.
